Thomas Horrell Frontside and Backside Lip Slide

BS/FS Boardslide Shuvit

Here’s a move for those of you who have taken enough falls on a wakeskate to know it’s more punishing on your body than wakeboarding; although water is actually softer than concrete. Learn to slide the lip in both directions, as well as do shuvits first before you try to combine them in one flowing move like Thomas does here. Balance and comfort on a wakeskate is key. Thomas says, “Wakeskating is 90% mental, so you need to see yourself doing the move before you can do it.”
